If you have something to say, say it with specifics plez. Hirap sa Pinoy, paligoy-ligoy pa kasi e. @carlosceldran

Check out this mini-rant Facebook rant from Carlos Celdran.
Hay nako. What is wrong with Get Real Philippines? Self-loathing and KSP. Their editors need to get laid.
He's obviously got something to say about us, but then won't go into specifics. Pinoy style paligoy-ligoy kung baga. Then somebody points out a possible specific GRP post he is referring to, and Celdran goes "Don't click. Don't give them the clicks they want."

ha ha!

    Do the lowly peon contributors also get to get laid? I won't ask if that's libel, I will ask if that redundantly bad grammar on my part.

    Maybe he resents being called a sideshow act. Akala niya siguro kasi pang main feature na daw siya.

    And of course, the ever-predictable Pinoy way of thinking: "You don't know why I'm offended by you? Then why should I tell you?"

    Pinoy nga naman. Not everybody can read minds, what more one as scrambled as a Pinoy's?

    Is that libel? So sue me.

    But when specifics are given and you don't agree with it you delete the post. That's cowardice, benignoy.

Poor people in the Philippines seem to prefer poverty over aspiring to be not poor

Sadly, a MAJORITY of the poor people here are bad people. That is WHY they are poor. They disrespect others, they disrespect themselves, and they disrespect God’s creation. Exactly how do they think they’ll be rewarded for that? If you genuinely had empathy, you would be able to get inside their heads and understand why they do these things, and perhaps know how to fix it. However, you are confusing “empathy” with “sympathy”. I have yet to meet a poor person who actually WANTS to do the things necessary to escape poverty. The funny thing is, everyone can see that I’m more successful than they are. They think this is because I’m “rich”. I’m sure a lot of them are full of jealousy (as benign0 describes) and sit around thinking “ha, it’s not fair, that foreigner is so rich and I’m so poor. I guess it’s OK if I steal his stuff”. Which they do. Regularly. I grew up poor. I know how it feels to be hungry, all the time, every day. I decided I didn’t like feeling like that. I’m successf

Rappler CEO @MariaRessa suggests that Duterte was ORDERED to sing by Trump! 😮

In a tweet fielded by Rappler CEO Maria Ressa today, the causality reader could be led to believe that Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was ordered to sing by US President Donald Trump. But was he really? It seems Ressa is just being too quick to selectively interpret a common Filipino colloquialism that is no different to the way we use terms like "bossing" and "chief" to address peers or even subordinates in a tongue-in-cheek manner. Ressa is most definitely grasping for straws here.

The sound of a #Tagalog convo: 'like chickens and hens cackling in unison'

While I'm not sure the language should totally go the way Latin did, one can't deny the limited use of Tagalog. As it is now, a sentence can't be done without two or three borrowed words in English which makes it redundant in academia. Somehow you gotta address the technical jargon but there really is no equivalent to it in Tagalog so the English term just ends up jammed in between the local vernacular. Nevermind the fact that reading Tagalog online is cringey no matter who wrote it. Add the fact that it just doesn't sound pleasing to the ear. Normal conversation with Tagalog is like chickens and hens cackling in unison to the uninitiated. It's the peasants' language through and through. ------------ This is a GRP Featured Comment.
